Bodybuilding a Religion?

Maybe it’s irreverent to compare bodybuilding to a religion, but what
else can it be if it isn’t a religion? Certainly no Bible thumpers were
ever more fervent or more passionate about their faith than a
bodybuilder is about the gym. And if bodybuilding is like a religion,
complete with its Olympian deities, then the bench press is the altar
of our little sect. It’s where our worth as physique athletes is
measured, and when some powerful presence starts throwing
45 pound plates on the bar and that sweet sound of clanging metal
(was any choir ever more uplifting?) hits our ears, we stop, listen,
and most of all, look. After all, the bench press has mystique.

As of Now.

I’m 18, a graduate, a survivor. Although I have lost many friends in the process, I’ve gain many as well. I’ve become to person I am today with my past, but I am not my past. I am better than that, and now all there is to do is strive for the future, the light, the everlasting hope. God.

The Key

To have deep and meaningful conversations is to talk about mental and spiritual things. All surface communication is about the world without, the mundane and the superficial. Deep conversation talks about the world within. All conversation is for discovering ourselves. It is about discovering who we are and where we are going. 

Listen to what people are saying about themselves. Be ready to point out what they say as what they think or desire about themselves. Recognize the thoughts that create the reality of their life situations and how they are like. This will make them feel that you can really help them to discover themselves. When you realize that people express themselves to you in conversation truly for the purpose of experiencing themselves, you will be able to help them fulfill that purpose.

In every interaction, you can give self esteem to another person or take some away from that person. Notice when others are giving you self esteem or taking it away from you by their verbal and nonverbal communication. Find people whom you can discuss your most important life issues in an intelligent and supportive manner. If you cannot talk to someone comfortably about your ideas, that person cannot be close to you. Everything is an idea. We are nothing but our ideas. Talking about your ideas is talking about yourself.

The most important thing in any relationship is communication. In fact, communication is the essence of the relationship. It lives or dies based on it. The communication is the relationship. The quality of your relationship is the quality of your communication. Everything in the relationship is one form of communication or another. All communication is transfer of energy in-formation. All communication is emotional communication.

This is so High School

The drama. The bullshit. Whatever. I’m above it. I’m beyond it. Life here I come. Military here I come.

Stress

This is the time that I need to release some stress and if it’s not released in a healthy manner, say by working out, dancing, or in the process of diligent work, it’s often released in a disgusting manner. Arguing and debate can turn into quarrels that should be avoided or can easily be.

Fuck it. I need to dance.
